This is in the upper volcano zone of the subduction zone. However, this zone gets compression, shallow thrust earthquakes, which come with a very high peak ground velocity (pgv). We won't know the actual value, but I'll look around. Not a lot of instruments here.
This type of earthquake is usually 'one and done', so it's not a foreshock for something bigger. Lots of aftershocks.
